I cannot stress enough that if X gets banned in the UK, it is not an assault on Freedom of Speech - it is the consequence of a platform that has allowed the mass creation of non-consensual sexual imagery of women and children which, in the UK is illegal.

Would be better if the Indie printed what I or anyone else really thought of Mandelson after sacking. ie that his complicity in Epstein's life and his disingenuousness about his involvement subsequently mean that he should exit public life. Not least for the sake of Epstein's victims.

We rightly were disgusted by the grooming gangs scandal - would we platform the mate of an Asian Grooming Gang Leader? Of course not. It’s almost like the victims of child sex abuse (often female) are cynically used until the story moves on. And somehow powerful men are always to be excused…

Disappointed w BBC for that Mandelson interview. A slap in the face to Epstein victims. He was part of the system of male power which enabled & dismissed abuse. The media went after Mandelson correctly in my view. Now the media is aiding his swift rehabilitation & PR. 1/2

What Elon Musk is doing to women protesting his humiliation of them = what TERFs do to trans people protesting their humiliation of them = what the pro-Genocide media does to those protesting against Israel's actions in Gaza.
'You Hate Free Speech' is the go-to Far Right smear every time a targeted group pushes back.
Would be great if headlines like this helped people understand that ugly tactic.

This has all been a campaign of desensitisation then implementation.
Incrementally lowering tolerance, then unleashing horrors.
The result? Instead of condemnation of child abuse, women sexually violated en masse and murder by the secret police, we have “debate”

These are great suggestions, but they are like writing a list of things we could do to Make Trump Lawful Again. They aren't going to happen because the whole point of the platform is the propaganda, the racism, the deepfakes. It's not a good faith organisation misfiring or short of resources.
Key to Msking Twitter Lawful Again is
1) enforcement action to make site bring in complaints system which removes unlawful content
2).real-time scrutiny with a transparent performance scoreboard
3) flexible escalating sanctions when fails, esp threshold for sin bin/suspension of service

Which strengthens the argument for anyone decent to just leave. En masse. No more excuses. If X collapses rather than being shut down, the arseholes lose their audience, their targets and their income stream without being able to have some epic tantrum about free speech.

The threat to shut X in the UK is a threat to the whole far right ecosystem.
They're going to throw everything at stopping it because they know it would cause them almost irreparable damage.
That's not the case for more moderate voices on left and right who have choices..

If you don’t think misogyny is a huge part of MAGA and Trump ever since Bannon activated the ‘monster energy’ of Gamergate against Hillary Clinton, think again.
As in Putin’s Russia, the desire to dominate, subjugate and kill women is the key psychopathology of Trumpism

JD Vance supports murdering American citizens. He's made that perfectly clear today. If he's willing to defend the murder of Renee Good, he would defend your murder, too.
JD Vance accuses the slain Renee Good of perpetrating "an attack on federal law enforcement, an attack on law and order, and attack on the American people"
"That woman was there to interfere with a legitimate law enforcement operation," he adds, repeatedly referring to her as "that woman"
